Welcome to Campus Connection, where new campus hot-spots and underappreciated organizations get their time in the spotlight.
In 2005, Ohio State took steps to support the fitness needs of the third-largest student populations in the nation. The completion of the Recreation/Physical Activity Center, also known as the RPAC, gave Ohio State one of the biggest physical fitness centers in the nation.
The building was finished in 2007 and resides just southeast of the Horseshoe. Its glass wall and scarlet walkway are among the most recognizable parts of campus.
The RPAC is an architectural masterpiece that features equipment to lift, do cardio, and play a number of games, ranging from basketball to squash.
